Halloween Spending to Top $13 Billion This Year

As for the top selling items, those are expected to be candy, decorations and costumes.

The National Retail Federation is estimating Halloween spending will reach 13-and-a-half billion dollars this year.

When adjusted for inflation, that’s more or less the same as last year’s record 13-point-one billion dollars in holiday spending.

As for the top selling items, those are expected to be candy, decorations and costumes. But, it’s also predicted that consumers will spend a combined 800 million dollars on Halloween cards and 920 million on costumes for their pets. All together, it distills down to about 115 dollars of spending per person this year.
